alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer
Posted: 05-01-08 06:11am

Can ANYONE tell me about any alternative treatments in New York for pancreatic cancer which spread to the liver? My dad is not a candidate for surgery and everything I read on the internet says chemo and radiation won't work. Please if anyone can give me any info, I cannot lose my dad. I need some hope right now so I have a reason to get up out of bed in the morning. I have to help my dad find a way to fight this horrible monster inside of him. We are interested in any alternative treatment or natural remedy that anyone has heard of. I found a center in the Bahamas and was wondering if New York offers anything. Desperately waiting for your reply. Thank you all and God Bless you all for caring to write back.

Hi, DonJo!

It's always hard to accept that treating an advanced cancer is difficult and unfavorable.
Your father has stage 4 of pancreatic cancer that has spread to distant organ, liver.
Pancreatic cancer can be controlled only if it is found before it has spread, when it can be removed by surgery. If the cancer has spread, palliative treatment can improve the patient's quality of life by controlling the symptoms and complications of this disease.

Treatment of stage IV pancreatic cancer may include chemotherapy, palliative treatments for pain, palliative surgery or stent placement to bypass blocked areas in ducts or the small intestine and biologic therapy, using the patient’s immune system to fight cancer.
You can, also, get informations about some treatment clinical trial.

I think you'll find this link helpful:

You might look up Essiac Tea. I've seen it help lots of people. I've heard it raises the t-cell count. Possible alternative,I heard sugar feeds cancers. look Up super antioxidants.Noni Goji Mangoteen.

Also stay away from sugar, The research I've read siad, sugar feeds cancers. Eat as raw and juice as much as you can. Limit red meats espeacially.
